Use triangle law of vector addition,
here, F1+F2+F3=0, since net force is zero it means the body is in equilibrium so both the statements are correct.
Statement I: If three forces F1,F2 and F3 are represented by three sides of a triangle and F1+F2=−F3, then these three forces are concurrent forces and satisfy the condition for equilibrium.
Statement II: A triangle made up of three forces F1,F2 and F3 as its sides were taken in the same order, satisfies the condition for translatory equilibrium.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Net gravitational force at the center of a square is found to be $F_{1}$ when four particles having mass $M, 2 M, 3 M$ and $4 M$ are placed at the four corners of the square as shown in figure and it is $F_{2}$ when the positions of $3 M$ and $4 M$ are interchanged. The ratio $\frac{F_{1}}{F_{2}}$ is $\frac{\alpha}{\sqrt{5}}$. The value of $\alpha$ is $\_\_\_\_$. 
A particle of mass 2 kg is projected vertically upward with a speed of 30 m/s. The maximum height reached by the particle is (g = 10 m/s²):
Two projectiles are projected with the same initial velocities at the $15^\circ$ and $30^\circ$ with respect to the horizontal. The ratio of their ranges is $1:x$. The value of $x$ is:
In an experiment the values of two spring constants were measured as $k_{1}=(10 \pm 0.2) \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$ and $k_{2}=(20 \pm 0.3) \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$. If these springs are connected in parallel, then the percentage error in equivalent spring constant is :
The surface tension of a soap solution is $3.5 \times 10^{-2}$ N/m. The work required to increase the radius of a soap bubble from $1$ cm to $2$ cm is $\alpha \times 10^{-6}$ J. The value of $\alpha$ is _____. ($\pi = 22/7$)
